Summary[edit]

Description

Psalm 23, King James Version
An image of Psalm 23 (King James' Version), frontispiece to the 1880 omnibus printing of The Sunday at Home. Scanned at 800 dpi.

Text:

The Lord is my Shepherd;--I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil:
For thou art with me;--thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies:
Thou anointest my head with oil;--my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life:
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

PSALM XXIII

Applications-graphics.svg This Bible illustration is a retouched picture, which means that it has been digitally altered from its original version. Modifications: Cleaned up dirt, stains, small hairs, and other flaws due to age, fixed a few very minor misprints in this particular print, e.g. small ink blobs and slightly incomplete letters.
The right edge didn't lay entirely flat on the scanner, fixed this.
Levels adjustment against original print, some selective work on the text, to correct some fading.
One of the inks, a metallicish bronze ink, didn't scan correctly due to its slight shininess, this had to be manually corrected. (luckily, the shininess appears to have been incidental to its colour, given how it was used.

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1905, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1926.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
